The Best Part of My Job? That I've Helped Define It Myself
“At Conference Manager, there’s room to work with what you are good at – and what you are passionate about.” That’s how Josephine puts it, Lead Digital Designer in the marketing department at Conference Manager. “You are the one setting the direction – in collaboration with your manager, of course.”
For Josephine, being part of setting her own goals for the upcoming quarter is actually ‘the very best part about working here,’ as she explains: “I’m not just handed a list of tasks. I’ve been involved in shaping my own roadmap. I’ve been part of deciding what I’m going to work on.”
The same flexibility applies to how tasks are carried out, Josephine continues. No one is looking over her shoulder when it comes to prioritizing. “And if I need a break from a task – well, then I take a break. No one interferes, as long as I meet my goals by the agreed deadline.”
Calm, Focus, and Professionalism
Josephine has previously worked at an agency – but there’s no doubt that her heart lies in in-house marketing. “Here, there’s calm and room for deep focus. This means that I have a much better opportunity to use my professional expertise – especially because I get to suggest what I believe is the best solution to a given task. That gives me a deep sense of job satisfaction.”
According to Josephine, the freedom to contribute ideas only reinforces the feeling that Conference Manager is a company where people genuinely listen – not only to professional input but just as much to ideas and opinions on workflows, collaboration, and the kind of culture they want to build together.
“This also means that you’ll experience a very unique kind of curiosity here. We’re interested in each other’s perspectives – across both teams, roles, and seniority levels.”
A Flat Structure and Genuine Commitment
When asked directly what most defines Conference Manager, Josephine doesn’t hesitate: “Genuine commitment to the company, sharp attention to the individual, and a very flat hierarchy.”
She elaborates: “People don’t just come to work to earn a paycheck – they care deeply about making our platform the best in the market. About making the company a success.”
Josephine is certain that this sense of ownership stems from how inclusive the company is. “Everybody is invited to contribute. Whether you’ve been here for a week or a decade, your input matters. This attitude not only creates real engagement but also pride in what we do.”
Another thing that really stands out to Josephine is the attention given to individuals and their contributions. “At our All-Hands meetings, even the smallest tasks are recognized. Whether you fixed a bug or designed a single icon – it’s acknowledged. That means a lot.“
Last but not least, it’s a company where anyone can talk to anyone. “There’s a very flat hierarchy here, and if you have a question – whether it’s about purchasing a new tool or input on an idea – you simply go straight to the person who can best help you. No red tape,” Josephine concludes.
At Conference Manager, it’s not just about having influence – it’s about being truly heard and valued. Just like Josephine, who enjoys taking a peaceful walk in the nearby forest during her workday whenever she needs a break, you’ll find that your ideas matter, your expertise is trusted, and you get to shape your own role.
If you want to join a culture where trust, professionalism, and genuine commitment go hand in hand, Conference Manager might just be the place for you.
